FWIW you can use also convert ReStructuredText (RST) to LaTeX. RST is very similar to Markdown, and it provides useful features that are missing. It also renders consistently across different viewers (presumably due to a tight specification). If you're working a lot with tables then you'll really enjoy the ease of the "list table" syntax.

I'd say RST is suitable for many types of documentation but I'm not convinced that it's suitable for conference/workshop submissions.
